Contentment in life comes with simple things...

Views in Verse - on contentment.


Contentment in life comes with simple things...not the grandiose! Being successful at 'shutting out the noise' comes with a desire to 'be at peace'


By Candlelight


To-night is the night
I've been thinking about all week
away from mundane chores
the 'our time' that we seek
We do the shop together
choose the menu with some care
We try to make it simple though
...easy to prepare
Just you 'n me so right
Dinner ...by candlelight

I'm happy to serve it up
As you like to fix your hair
A glass of wine before we sit
Brings 'still' beyond compare
The music that you choose
Brings thoughts of long ago
The talk is flowing now
The fire burning low
And here we are so right
Romance ... by candlelight

The kids all out for the night
Brings release from the 'mo'
Our chat turns to talking 'bout
Odd people that we know
We talk of stellar times too
Of travel to and fro
Laugh about the children
And how they tease us so
Easy to feel so right
Laughter ...by candlelight

A kitchen clean-up
jolts routine into the air
No need to rush it though
It's 'our time' that we share
The weekend brings a window
Lots of hours to spare
Let's just enjoy it
the morning still waits there
now so right
Bedtime ...by candlelight
